when I do:
http://myserver/wordpress
it doesn’t find index.php ( though it would find index.html as shown above )
if I do a phpinfo page and call it index.php, and do:
http://myserver/wordpress/index.php
the phpinfo page displays fine.
I will ask on the forum for the server software I am using, I think its more a prob to do with how I have set up php and my webserver than a wordpress issue.
My goal is to become familiar with installing and using WordPress on my own test server before using it on paid-for hosting.
many thanks
oh yes. still no luck
when I do:
‘mv index.php indexphp’
and
‘mv readme.html index.html’
and go to the wordpress directory with or without specifying the filename, the readme.html page displays fine.
I will write a test php page and post back.
